The Life and Times: Atticus of Rome 30 B.C.
by Barry Denenberg
Atticus, a young boy who has been torn from his family and home and sold as a slave to a Roman aristocrat, quickly learns that not all is as it seems in the republic of Rome. Politicians and greedy merchants plot against each other, and Atticus must do his best to protect his kindly master...and, in turn, the Emperor of Rome. Murder and lies fill his new life as a spy for Lucius Opimius.

Excerpt:
There was one thing Lucius Opimius didn't consult Aristide about. In fact he hadn't informed anyone except the messenger he had personally dispatched, just before dawn, and only hours after (against his better judgment) giving in to his wife.

I loved this book. Especially when Atticus finds his father and when his slaves kill the other dude.
